Keri Hilson

Tell Him the Truth

If you've ever kept a secret

From the one you love

This is what it feels like

If you thought that I was perfect

Boy you were wrong

I'm far from that

There's one thing that I've done to you

That I regret and

Look I know it's no excuse but

I'm only human and young at that

And I'm gonna make mistakes

And hope you understand

Didn't see it comin

Wasn't on purpose

Baby I promise

I didn't mean to hurt you

Will you forgive me

You didn't deserve this

I know it wasn't worth it

I'm a tell him the truth

(when I'm ready to)

Tell him the truth

(some how)

Gotta tell him the truth

(That's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now)

Gotta Tell him the truth

(just wait a little bit)

Tell him the truth

(he couldn't handle it)

Tell him the truth

(that's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now ooh)

Didn't see when I had tears rolling down my face

I turned my back

It was heavy on the tongue

And I kenew that you knew something was wrong

I was about to break open spill out everything

But something said

Keri wait, Things are going great, what you gonna say

I don't know maybe something like

Didn't see it comin

Wasn't on purpose

Baby I promise

I didn't mean to hurt you

Will you forgive me

You didn't deserve this

I know it wasn't worth it

I'm a tell him the truth

(when I'm ready to)

Tell him the truth

(some how)

Gotta tell him the truth

(That's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now)

Gotta Tell him the truth

(just wait a little bit)

Tell him the truth

(he couldn't handle it)

Tell him the truth

(that's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now ooh)

I feel less (than nothin)

Lower (than zero)

And tired (of frontin)

Gotta tell him the truth ooh

I feel less (than nothin)

Lower (than zero)

And tired (of frontin)

Gotta tell him the truth ooh

Guess I've been waitin for the stars to align

There's no perfect time

I gotta tell him the truth

Cause it's hard to build the truth on a lie

And if that's what I want

I gotta tell him the truth

I'm a tell him the truth

(when I'm ready to)

Tell him the truth

(some how)

Gotta tell him the truth

(That's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now)

Gotta Tell him the truth

(just wait a little bit)

Tell him the truth

(he couldn't handle it)

Tell him the truth

(that's what I gotta do)

Tell him the truth

(but not now ooh)
